How much do you know about the Internet?

While your students are itching to go, are YOU ready to turn your students loose on the web to do research?

Take a look at the Web Research Guide. It offers tutorials, quizzes and a teachers' guide on basic web researching.

Try your hand at the Internet Basic Quiz. This quiz can be taken on-line or you can download and print a copy of the quiz.

Are you an "Internet Wizard"? Take the Internet Expert Quiz! This can also be used as an assessment for students after learning about web researching.
